Neuro Edge: Introduction to Functional Neuro and Brain-Based Chiropractic
Wired In | A Functional Neuro Immersion Day | 9:00am to 5:00pm (8 hours)
Go deeper. Think sharper. Transform the way you see your patient, from a neurological update. This hands-on practical program, The Neuro Edge, is a low-technology functional neuro immersion covering neuroplasticity, brain lobe, cranial nerve, cerebellar, and vestibular assessment, followed by vestibular and concussion rehabilitation and the latest on CTE, and more.
Dr Paul will walk through several cases, some drawn from his trip to India in February 2026, where he joined 20 other chiropractors to provide philanthropic care to underserved communities in West Bengal. As a functional neuro, in the absence of X-ray, CT, or MRI assessments, Dr Paul relied on a tailored neuro case history and bedside tools all chiropractors have, such as a reflex hammer, torch, and pinwheel. Dr Paul assessed cases involving stroke, dementia, cerebellar disorders, Parkinson's disease, and cerebral palsy, and has permission from Hands on India to show some live video footage, for education purposes, of some of the cases seen.
This clinical experience forms the foundation of this neuro immersion program. At its core is an understanding of neuroplasticity, how the central nervous system adapts its response to afferent input over time. This reinforces a foundational principle of the brain-based chiropractic model: neurological presentations understood as functional neurological events based from the brain, not solely as structural or biomechanical spinal findings.
Chiropractors do not need previous functional neurology knowledge to complete this one day course.
What Functional Neuro Actually Is and Why It Changes Everything. How functional neuro differs from neuro taught in your undergraduate program. The brain-based model of chiropractic understanding subluxation as a neuro event, not just a structural one.
Neuroplasticity: The Science Your Practice Should Be Built On. How the brain changes in response to input and what role the chiropractor plays in driving that change.
Building Your Neuro Assessment Framework. A structured, reproducible neuro assessment protocol built for everyday clinical use using only the three tools already in your bag.
Brain Lobe Assessment: Frontal, Temporal, Parietal and Occipital. Read the whole brain recognise lobe-specific patterns and integrate findings into a coherent clinical picture.
Cranial Nerve Assessment CN I-XII. Practical assessment protocols for all twelve cranial nerves what to test, how to test it, and how it changes your management.
Cerebellar Assessment. Go beyond the basic Romberg and build a confident, interpretable cerebellar examination that elevates your clinical reasoning.
Vestibular Assessment. Identify vestibular dysfunction that most chiropractors routinely miss and know exactly when to refer.
Concussion, CTE and Vestibular Rehabilitation. Assess, grade and rehabilitate concussion across cognitive, vestibular and cervicogenic domains with confidence.
Matching Intervention to Findings. Build evidence-informed management plans directly from your neuro data because better assessment produces better outcomes.
Introducing Functional Neuro Into Your Practice. A clear, practical roadmap for integrating neuro assessment into your existing consultations from day one, with recommendations on how to build your knowledge further.
Who this workshop is for
Any chiropractor who wants to think more deeply about the neuro dimension of their clinical work. No prior neuro training required. Just bring an open mind, a willingness to see your patients differently and the three tools you already have in your bag.
